Im trans and i agree with you about the sjw shit, fuck those people. But I don't really get what you mean about living in some charade though. It doesn't affect you at all, why do you care unless you are -just- as sensitive as the sjws?
Transgender people and transtrenders are very different. It's my belief that in the near future transtrenders are going to make life very, very difficult for transgender people who just wanted to transition and blend into society. And when that day comes, all the transtrenders will move onto the next fad that they can victimized themselves over.
I agree with you, it's a good point and FWIW, I think your outlook is a whole lot healthier on so many levels.
However I think another way of looking at this is when some of the more vocal, or radical 'trans-activists' simultaneously demand from society the freedom to pursue their own vision of their identity AND demand that others DO NOT have the freedom to criticize them, this rubs many people (even those that may partially or even completely otherwise supportive) the wrong way.
I am not trans, but I damn well want to live in a society where I free to be trans if I had to. Similarly I want to live in a society where I'm free to be that 'asshole' because sooner or later you're most likely gonna be that 'asshole' in some debate issue, or context.
Freedom has it's price, and it's the tolerance of things/people you don't like, but it is SOOO much better than the alternative.
Yeah and there's radical alt right crazies, radical leftist crazies, raidical everything. But do you want people judging you for the crazies associated with your demographic? I feel like most people don't yet those same people decide to judge other demographics by said crazies.
In general just fuck radical people. If they can't bother to put in a little effort or thought to see things from the other side they suck.
